It was about a 0.5 hour pickup truck ride out to the site from McMurdo.

The station was initially empty, except for a solar panel that we
removed (all of the remaining instruments were removed at an earlier
visit this season). One battery box was also removed.

We installed an aerovane, upper temp, lower temp, HMP, solar panel,
electronics box and junction box. We put out 2 sets of batteries at
the site. Note: the junction box is an old style box. Therefore the
solar panel has been hardwired into the junction box and the battery
cables are the old style. Also, we removed the freewave transmitter
from the site, due to the fact that the freewave receiving antennae on
top of Crary will not pick up the signal from this site. Therefore, a
data card will collect the data and will need to be retrieved next
season. The computer was connected to the station and the data
collection looked good.
